American Pillar Arborvitae’s foliage is dense and tightly packed, creating a formidable barrier against unwanted eyes and noise. The individual leaves are small and overlapping, forming a fine-textured appearance that softens the hedge’s silhouette while maintaining its protective quality.

How to Plant Full Speed A Hedge® American Pillar Arborvitae

Choose the Right Spot

For optimal growth, plant your Full Speed A Hedge® American Pillar Arborvitae in a location receiving full sun to part shade. At least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily is ideal. Well-drained soil is crucial, so avoid soggy areas or heavy clay soil. If needed, amend clay soil with sand or compost to improve drainage.

Measure the Space

At maturity, the Full Speed A Hedge® American Pillar Arborvitae will reach a towering 25-30 feet tall and maintain a manageable 3-4 foot width. For a dense and effective privacy screen, space individual plants 3-4 feet apart when planting multiple arborvitae.

Dig the Hole

Prepare a hole for your arborvitae that’s 2-3 times wider and deeper than the root ball. This allows ample space for root development and prevents future crowding.

Plant It

Carefully remove your Full Speed A Hedge® American Pillar Arborvitae from its container and gently loosen any circling roots. Place the plant in the hole, ensuring the root crown (where the roots meet the stem) sits at or slightly above the surrounding soil level. Backfill the hole with soil, tamping gently to eliminate air pockets and secure the plant in place.

Water Thoroughly

After planting, give your new arborvitae a deep soak to settle the soil around the roots and help it overcome transplant shock. Aim to thoroughly saturate the root ball.

Mulch and Care

Apply a 2-3 inch layer of organic mulch around the base of the plant, keeping it a few inches away from the trunk. Replenish the mulch layer annually. Water your arborvitae regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, they are relatively drought tolerant, but still appreciate deep watering during dry periods.
